Will Ferrell to Host ‘Saturday Night Live’ for Third Time on May 12

Former ‘SNL‘ castmember, Will Ferrell is taking to the studio 8H stage once again to host the show that made him a star. Ferrell’s May 12th appearance follows those of fellow ‘Saturday Night Live’ alums, Jimmy Fallon and Maya Rudolph, who also had hosting gigs during this 37th season of the late night sketch show.

The ‘Anchorman 2‘ star will be joined by musical guest Usher for his third ‘SNL’ hosting gig. Since leaving the show and his Alex Trebek impersonations behind in 2002, Ferrell’s gone on to enjoy a successful movie career, working with long-time collaborator, writer/director Adam McKay. But like so many ‘SNL’ stars who’ve moved on and up with their careers, Ferrell is returning to his late night roots.
